Fourth line, time plus bananas plus bananas time number of lines.

So 2+3+3X11 = 88

Unless (2+3)+(3X11)= 38

I think... I don't have that many fingers.

BK911 & Shifter for the win with PEMDAS. :D

2+3+3x11 = 38

38 here.

2 + 3 + 3 x 11 = 38

(11x3)+2+3=38

They are extra screwing with everyone by not having a symbol stand for a number, but by having particular parts of a symbol add up to a number.

When you had the geometric shapes at the top, there was a square, pentagon and hexagon for a total of 15 sides or 15 points, but in the bottom, you've only got 11. The bundles of bananas at the top have 4 bananas and equal 4, but in the last line, only 3 bananas in the bunch. And the clock is pointing at 3 vs 2.

I made that mistake too, until I thought "if they can change the geometric shapes and the clock to mean something different, then they can do the same with the bananas.

^^^^^^^

Ah, you're right, Steve!!

Thanks!

Yep, 38...

If the clock showing 2:00 in the last line represents the same value (3) as the two clocks above it both showing 3:00, then yes, the answer is 67.

OK, assuming the clock value is 2, the banana value is 3 rather than 4, and I saw that the last figure in the last line only had 11 corners rather than 15 corners like those above it. SOOOOO.......:

15+15+15=45
4+4+15=23
4+3+3=10
2+3+(3x11)=38

LOL, the shapes in the last line are all different from the previous ones ... it is a trap! ;-)

However, the three shapes up top and the double in the last line really means we are all just guessing there is not enough info there. It's a guess that the clock at three being three means the clock at two means two....there is not enough info to confidently answer without making assumptions as to the values.

+1
Too many variables or too few equations unless you ignore the small differences within the symbols.

38 if you follow order of operations: 3x11 + (2+3) = 33 + 5 = 38
